Latest reviews from our guests

    Del was very knowledgeable and friendly, she catered our tour based on our preferences. She also helped me understand how to navigate the metro and purchase the most cost efficient metro card for our time in Paris! Highly recommend Del!

    Mara was amazing! She even helped us with parking as we were driving into the city. When the road was blocked with a bus that prevented us from getting to the parking garage, she walked to us with someone from the parking garage and directed us into the garage! I loved all the spots she took us to. It was exactly what we were looking for. I loved that she stopped and pointed out things that the big groups walked right by. She gave us amazing recommendations for what to see on our own, and where to pick up specific things we were looking to purchase
